WHAT IS LICITAR?

Licitar

is colorfully decorated cake made of honey dough. From the distant past the secrecy of licitar making has been preserved within the family of gingerbread crafts from the central and lowland Croatia. Although entirely made of edible ingredients, at first it brings joy for eyes and soul. Traditionally it is of bright red color and produced in various shapes and sizes. Small size licitars (heart, cherry, doll, small bird, mushroom, horse-shoe, small wreath, horse) are favorite decorations of Christmas trees in Croatian homes, whereas large size licitars are created for giving as a gift for love ones at special occasions. A young man giving a heart shape licitars to his girlfriend in order to express his love and devotion is a custom deeply rooted in Croatian traditional heritage.
